A rich, textured yet also pure white, Denner’s 2012 Viognier offers up solid stone fruits, hints of flowers and juicy peach to go with a medium-bodied, mouth-filling profile on the palate. Finishing with clean acidity and beautiful focus, it’s an outstanding Viognier that has both richness and freshness. Enjoy it over the coming year or three. Drink now-2016.
This was a beautiful lineup of wines by winemaker Anthony Yount and I continue to be impressed with the wines of this estate. Located on the western edge of Paso Robles, the wines possess individual, unique characters that show not only Paso fruit, but balance and restraint. They’re highly recommended.
